Lies Happen
What if you were being pressured by your parents to get into a certain school? Then you didn’t get accepted in the school that they wanted, what would you do? Eli is going through that right now. The story relates to real life because it is a comedy. “The Lie” relates to life because it shows how people in life have problems.
To begin with this story I would say that "The Lie" relates to life because the parents of Eli put too much pressure on him. In real life parents do put pressure on their kid like, sports, school, or other activities. This story also relates to life because kids are scared of what their parents are going to think of them. Most kids want to please their parents, but sometimes the parents don't even realize that their kid is trying to. So therefore they don’t pay attention to that kind of stuff. A lot of kids do not get accepted by their parents or friends. In this case Eli is not getting accepted by his parents because Eli didn't get accepted in to White Hill preparatory school. His parents were disappointed in Eli. They didn't accepted Eli until the end because they thought it was partly their fault because they were putting a lot of pressure on him.
In addition I would like to talk about how this story is a Comedy. It is a Comedy because in the being it starts off normal with Eli trying to get in to the school. Then there is a conflict and that is when Eli lied to his parents. Eli didn’t tell them that he didn't get accepted in to the school because he thought that they were going to be mad and disappointed. It went back to normal when his parents found out about Eli by other people, that Eli did not get accepted into White Hill. They just accepted Eli for Eli and Eli couldn't do anything about getting in. They thought they were putting to much presser on him which they were. They realized that they should know their own kid and put not as much presser on Eli as they were.
The purpose of this story is to attract attention to the readers about why you should not lie to people because all it just does is it will lead into more lies and you can usually never get out of a lie. More lies will just lead into trouble. That’s why you should just tell the truth in the first place, even if you do get into trouble. I believe that you should love your kid unconditionally even if they go against or lie to you.
In a year the average person tells 1,460 lies. In the short story I told you that Eli lied to his mom and dad and how he goes through everyday life with this lie on his shoulder. If you choose to lie you will find yourself in a bad situation.
